We were pretty sure our dog was ok but wanted to make sure he didn't have a more serious eye injury. Our dog got seen right away, we had to wait outside while he was treated. Doctor called us within 15 minutes to give us an update and treatment plan. Left less than an hour after arrival and a very reasonable fee for a 24 hour clinic. Compassionate staff and doctor. Consistent with previous visits with our other dog in the past. If you're local and in need of a vet when your regular vet is closed these are good people and affordable.read less

This place is second to none in doing everything they can to save your pet. If cost is of no concern and you are looking for the best care, this is the place! Even if you pet is in ICU, they let you have a 5 minute visit, or if they are healthy enough give you a private room. Plus you can call and talk to a nurse just about anytime. They are a GREAT Pet ER!read less

My one year old boy pug got attacked by a dog that managed to rip his eye out! After running from hospital to hospital in homestead with no luck as they were all closed, I was referred to the Pet Emergency Room by our family vet who I trust with every being! Boy was I glad to have found them! I called in advance to let them know of the situation as I rushed from homestead! Within seconds of getting there my baby was taken to the back and I was in a room in less than 5 minutes! They immediately gave him something for pain and the inflammation and lubricated his eye to help! The doctor came in and was very sympathetic to the situation and assured me they would do everything they could to save his eye! They started to treat him prior to me even seeing the estimate! That meant the world to me, they care about him and his comfort! Most places won't even touch an animal prior to signing a contract or even having a card on file! That wasn't the case here! Within a couple hours the doctor called to let me know how the operation had gone and how he was doing! Hours after that I was called at 11pm letting me know I could go pick up my baby and that I would have a credit returned to me seeing as he didn't stay over night! They've been nothing but helpful and patient with me as we've gone through these last two weeks. I've emailed and texted pictures for ever concern or question I've had and have gotten a response within 30 mins! I couldn't be more grateful for the staff and Doctors there! Thank you for saving his eye! We'll forever me thankful for all the attention and care!- Milo's Mommy!read less

Not only are the doctors knowledgable and skilled, but they genuinely care about their furry patients and speak to you with kindness, patience and understanding. Dr. Daubs is especially amazing.

Instead of remembering the hospital with pain, i can look back and smile. Dr. Fuentes also needs a special mention for her part in brining my Noodle back to life too!read less

My cat has a history of urinary blockage, he almost died the first time. Since my clinic was closed at that time I took him here. After answering a few questions the Vet in charge came to the conclusion that he probably had a urinary infection. The Vet told me that I could have him treated there but it would be more expensive than at my clinic. All I paid was the consultation and had my cat seen by his regular Vet. Im very grateful for this team and clinic, thank you for your help.read less

My 13 year-old dog was having trouble breathing around 12am, and I came across this clinic as Open Now on Google Maps. I gave them a call to make sure they were open, and they urged me to come in as soon as possible.

On the way to the clinic, my dog was fine. As soon as we got to the door, she collapsed. The vet tech saw her fall and immediately picked her up and took her to see a doctor. We filled out paperwork and not even 15 minutes later we were speaking with the vet himself. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. DeSimone. He gave us a run down of all the issues she could be having, and we began running tests to make sure we could save her life.

Unfortunately, my dog deteriorated too quickly before we were able to give her any sort of medication. She was in an oxygen cage to help her breathe, but her breathing just continued to get worse and she was beginning to fade away. Dr.DeSimone mentioned we could do treatment to keep her alive for a few more days, but her odds were not good and at this point she was suffering. We had to make the difficult decision of letting her go.

I can't explain how difficult this was for us, but everyone in the clinic was very respectful and supportive. I know they probably see this often, but they were still very compassionate and understanding of how hard this moment was for us. I truly felt that they did everything in their power to help my dog and to make sure she was comfortable, even in her final moments. At 4 in the morning, my very loved Roxy passed.

Considering the billing, their pricing was very fair and competitive with what my regular vet would have charged me, even considering this is an after hours hospital. They were upfront about the cost and provided a written breakdown every step of the way. Very professional overall.

I had to make time to leave The Pet Emergency Room a review because they changed our lives. 2 weeks ago my Pomeranian was attacked by my neighbors big dog and I rushed him to my local vet that I have been going to for close to 30 years. They recommended me to The Pet Emergency Room because my dog was in really bad shape and needed to have emergency surgery right away. They handled it immediately as soon as I got there and saved my dogs life which is like my child. I couldn’t be more thankful to all of the doctors there who are extremely skilled and knowledgeable and the entire staff who was extremely friendly to my family and I. We sometimes went twice a day to go visit our boy until he was ready to go home. They never got annoyed with us, they treated us friendly every time we went and even offered us snacks! They all cared so much for our dog and treated him like the superstar that he is, again we can’t thank them enough. He is home now almost fully recovered from broken ribs and a punctured lung. Thanks Pet Emergency Room for saving Archer’s life and making our life still complete with our baby boy.read less

He's an old guy that has a terminal cancer already. They were nothing short of amazing with him.
Dr Fiat was there most of the time of his >48 hour stay (I'm not sure how she fits in sleep with her schedule!) and she was incredible with the way she explained his condition and the realities of what we were looking at. When you have a loved one, be it pet or human, that is frail and at the end-of-life, you need medical guidance that is realistic and compassionate, and we got exactly that.
The first time I took him there over a year ago the care was no different, though he was younger and his condition, though serious, was able to be reversed with their treatment.
The pet emergency room and their staff and Docs are impressive and I would recommend them to anyone with an ill pet.
Thank you pet emergency room!read less

I first came because of my cat Max, he was in much need of help. He was blocked my veterinarian sent me here since he was not able to see Max out of office hours. At first it was scary because it means that the expense was going to be major. This started since March and Max was seen by Dr. Daubs and Rey. Both are amazing human beings, not only did my Max get help but they cared. The first surgery did not quite work, but second surgery both surgeons Dr. Daubs and Dr. Lin helped Max, and surgery worked 😊😊😊👌. As Max mom I can say this was best news ever. Rey and Dr. Daubs now also Dr. Lin were exceptional people Marco helped me out a lot as well. I was also dealing after second surgery with Max contracting e-coli, Marco taught me to inject Max, which I did for 14 days. Finally mud June and great news, Max is exceptionally doing great. I also wanted to express my gratitude to the girls in front desk, they were really understanding amazing people as well. I will defenetly recommend The Pet Emergency Room it was a pleasure being here the time I was. Thanks to everyone who was there for Max.read less
